A dog sits waiting in the cold sun
Too faithful to leave, too frightened to run
She's been there for days now with nothing to do
But sit by the road waiting for you.
She can't understand why you left her that day.
She thought she and you were stopping to play.
She's sure you'll come back and that's why she stays.
How long will she suffer? How many more days?
Her legs have grown weak. Her throat parched and dry.
She's sick from hunger and falls with a sigh.
She lays down her head and closes her eyes.
I wish you could see how a waiting dog dies.
